The report ‘The Concept of the Individual Building Renovation Roadmapreport’ offers an overview of the process behind the creation of an Individual Building Renovation Roadmap and covers the key issues that need to be addressed to allow its development and implementation. Real-life examples based on four existing initiatives revolving around the concept of individual building roadmaps and passports are used in this report to demonstrate how the different elements can be designed and implemented

Roughly 97% of the European Union (EU)’s building stock is not considered energy efficient, and 75 to 85% of it will still be in use in 2050. Defining a pathway towards a ‘highly efficient and decarbonised building stock by 2050’ is a fundamental pillar of the revised Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD), requiring the transformation of the majority of buildings from highly inefficient to, at least, nearly Zero-Energy Buildings.

Setting realistic and ambitious reduction targets for building energy consumption is not truly possible without using the power of data. Data is needed to identify both trends in energy consumption and cost-effective improvement opportunities aligning with broader targets of Paris compliant city climate action plans and Deadline 2020.

The free interactive Pan-European Thermal Atlas (Peta4), developed by the H2020 EU-funded project HRE, assesses heating and cooling demand, efficiency, and supply across Europe, supporting cities and industry in their efforts to decarbonise the heating and cooling sector.
